We love dreamy, Creamy Pies!
Our family loves all pies, especially cream pies! Because pies are a favorite dessert (especially around the holidays), we love having a variety of them at our family get togethers. One of those favorites we like to make is our Sugar Cream Pie (aka Hoosier Pie)! This delicious old-fashioned pie is believed to originate from Indiana’s Amish/Quaker community in the mid-1800s. No matter where it came from, we are glad it’s here because it’s simple and so delicious. If you love dreamy creamy pies too, be sure to check out our Chocolate Cream Pie Recipe, Coconut Cream Pie, and Banana Cream Pie.
Ingredients
PREP TIME: 10 minutes BAKE TIME: 30 minutes CHILL TIME: 3 hours
1 (9-inch) unbaked pie shell – use store-bought or a Homemade Pie Crust. ¾ cup granulated sugar ¼ cup cornstarch – This helps thicken up the filling. 2 cups cold milk – Use whole milk or 2%, anything less and the pie won’t set well. ½ cup butter – We typically use unsalted butter but salted works too. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract – or use almond extract if desired. 1 tablespoon cinnamon sugar – Use store-bought cinnamon sugar (McCormick), or make your own! Start with ¼ cup of sugar and 1 tablespoon of cinnamon, add more cinnamon according to preference. You can also add a sprinkle of nutmeg for extra flavor.
